Will a pro-life Republican ever be nominated for President?
It's an interesting question. There are some within the party who do have pro-life (except in cases of R/I/LOM) stances, and others who support universal healthcare on a limited basis (Lincoln Chaffee). I wonder how nominating someone with these positions would play in a national election?

6. Yet they have advocated violence and poverty...
I think you missed the point of the thread.

Anti-abortion candidates are about as pro-life as malaria.
